"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

This can take 20 to 30 minutes,. Remove from heat and then add butter and vanilla. Do Not Stir! Cool at room temperature to 110 degrees (lukewarm). This can take 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Beat with wooden spoon until fudge thickens and loses some of its gloss. This can take 15-20 minutes. It really works best if you have someone to tag-team with. It starts to look more like frosting than thick syrup when it is ready Quicklyspread into prepared pan and let cool. Cut into squares.
